HOW WAS THE TRAINING
Actually the training was good enough due to the fact that it was arranged well to meet
the needs of the intended outcome. Today 19th March, 1014 is the last day of this profitable training. In this day we managed to learn the following skills as elaborated below.

First of all we went on studying on how to layout our blogs whereas we managed to post the list of all participants as shown in my blog (Habibu Mawenya.blogspot.com)
Then we went on configuration of links to all the participants which will directly send the navigator to the respected blog.

After that we went on studying on how to put links on the texts. In this training we managed to acquire knowledge of showing our readers in different parts of the world that the given text is directly found in a directed link.

This was quite the greatest knowledge from the internet search for facts especially for all the journalists who wish to use information which are directly quoted from the internet.

Most of journalists do tends to make plagiarism when they quote a source from the website thinking that there is no means for the owners of the text to know and thus violated the copyright law.

Again I would like to say that I like each and everything concerning this training, and nothing I dislike in this training

The thing which is needed to improve this training is to add more number of participants so as they can be able to share the profitable training like this to their colleagues.

In fact I would like to say that the training meets the needs of my expectation because the value that I added in this training is very useful to my students and all the staff of The Arusha East AfricanTraining Institute.

Once Again thanks very much.

WHAT WE HAVE LEARN IN THE SECOND DAY 18TH MARCH, 2014
In the beginning of the second day in our training, we started by reviewing our blogs contents which contains the introduction and the summary of the first day of our training.
Then we went on the topic of Journalistic Research assignments whereas we went on searching different information from the recognized websites. For example we search for president of Ukraine, top goal score in UEFA champion league, the height of mountain Everest, inflation rate of Tanzania and the quotations of President Jakaya Kikwete on poaching in Tanzania.
After that we went on studying on how to narrow our search via internet by using the search tools, search engine, Google search options, narrow by language, Google news and Google scholar.
Apart from that we went on using the Google translate to translate various information into a number of languages.
Again we pass on important things to consider when we attempt to write any story by using the sources from the internet.
And at the end of the session we were to fulfill the assignment as well as to write the short summary of the training today.
In the highlight of the above phrases I can say confidently that there is no any thing that I dislike in this training because everything went all right.
And of course I likes the training very much because I have add new skills, knowledge and greatest value that I will share with the rest of my colleagues.
